This guide explains how to add tags to your single posts in the Astra theme. By default, tags and other taxonomy items appear in the post title area. The steps below show you how to enable tags and position them at the end of the single post content.
How to Enable Tags on Single Posts
Tags play a vital role in organizing your content and making it easier for readers to find related posts.
By enabling and customizing the display of tags, you can improve the navigation and aesthetics of your blog posts.
Let’s go through the steps on how you can enable and position tags effectively on single posts in the Astra theme.
Navigate to Customize:
Go to Customize >> Blog >> Single Post >> Post Title Area. This is where you can modify the post title area, including the title, featured image, taxonomy, author, and more.
Modify Meta Options:
Scroll down to Meta Options and click on the eye icon for Taxonomy.
Select Tags as Taxonomy:
Click on the dropdown arrow and select Tags as the taxonomy. To display post categories, follow the same process and select categories. If you wish to display both tags and categories, click on the clone icon beside the eye icon.
Arrange Tags in Meta Options:
Once enabled, drag and drop the tags to change their position within the meta options area.
Customize Taxonomy Structure:
To display tags on a separate line, use the Taxonomy Option in the Tax Structure section.
By following these steps, you can enable tags on your single blog post in the Astra theme.

Sometimes, you may want to display tags at the bottom of the single post content. This can be done easily with the Site Builder module of Astra Pro. If you haven’t installed Astra Pro yet, refer to this guide.
Here are the steps to display tags at the bottom using the Site Builder:
- Activate the Site Builder module in Astra Pro and create a Hooks Layout.
